Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, on Wednesday, dissolved the Ondo State Executive Council and relieved all Senior Special Assistants (SSAs) and Special Assistants (SAs) of their duties, effective immediately.

Aiyedatiwa, formerly the Ondo deputy governor, assumed office as the substantive governor of the South-West state on December 27, 2023, succeeding Akeredolu after his passing.

During the ex-governor’s illness, Aiyedatiwa, the former deputy governor, successfully navigated an impeachment plot orchestrated by some of Akeredolu’s allies in the Ondo State House of Assembly.

The governor’s spokesman, Ebenezer Adeniyan, in a statement, said, “All members of the Cabinet (who were appointed by late Governor Rotimi Akeredolu) are to immediately hand over to the Permanent Secretaries or the most senior administrative officers in their respective offices.

“All the affected officials are directed to hand over all government properties in their possession.

“The Governor thanks the affected officials for their services and contributions to the development of the State”,
